FRIED OKRA SALAD -- YUM!
One of my coworkers made this salad for a luncheon and it was a huge hit. Personally, I never would have put fried okra in a salad, but one taste of this and I was hooked. It's best served fresh so that the okra is crispy.

FRIED OKRA SALAD
Had this at a birthday party recently and, it was so delicious, I had to have the recipe. As the chef gave it to me, I quickly jotted it down on a pink paper napkin and have been guarding that napkin ever since. Thought I'd better post it online so it won't get misplaced. It is a bit different than the other Okra Salads posted here. As I haven't made it yet, prep and cook times are guesstimates and don't include cooling.

FRIED OKRA SALAD
I first had this at a sunday school dinner. Someone brought this for our yearly soup supper and we emptied the bowl. I think it is the oddest combination of ingredients to get something that tastes really good. If you like fried okra, give this a try.
